How to provide proper storage conditions for your shoes? What do you need to know and keep in mind when choosing the place for the shoes? Here are some of the most important factors that you need to consider:

  • Sunlight – Light can greatly spoil any pair of shoes. If exposed to sunlight, the quality and color change. It is important that you do not leave your shoes under the influence of sunlight.
  • Temperature – The temperature should not change sharply, otherwise it will affect the condition of any shoes.
  • Airing and humidity – It is important not to store shoes in a damp place. Normal, comfortable conditions are in the range of 45-55% humidity. To maintain an optimal rate, you can use a humidifier in any season, and in winter you can simply leave a container of water near the radiator.

It is not recommended to organize storage where a lot of dust is constantly collected. It clogs the external side of the shoes and is very hard to clean. It is best if you consider packing in special bags – this allows for normal air access, circulation of temperature and humidity.

If you do not take into consideration these factors, even the highest quality shoes will slowly and deteriorate. How to prepare your shoes for storage?

The first thing to do is sorting. Have a look and see if you have any pair that has gone out of fashion, become tight or too wide. Perhaps there are damaged or not repairable pairs which need to be thrown away. A little sorting will help you not waste space on unnecessary things. Here are some simple tips that you can follow:

  • Remove the dust from the upper parts, textile materials can be cleaned with a vacuum cleaner.
  • Wipe each shoe with a damp microfiber cloth. It is necessary to pay attention to the heel, the sole and each decorative element.
  • It is important to let everything dry well before storing. Removable insoles must be removed.
  • For storing winter shoes – stuff them with newspapers or other soft paper. Such a filler absorbs even a minimal amount of moisture and will help keep the shape of shoes and boots.
  • Do not place shoes dry too close to the fireplace, boiler or other heating elements. Excess heat contributes to deformation and the appearance of cracks.
  • If there are minor defects on your favorite pair that require repair, we recommend that you immediately take it to a cobbler.
  • Methods of storing shoes always include processing with special compounds. Leather and faux leather should be treated with cream, suede is sprayed with spray. It is important to wait until the product is completely absorbed.
  • Each pair must be packed in its own box or bag. This protects against dust, moisture and moisture condensation. Winter models should be stored in a breathable bag. You can compactly pack several pairs of summer models.
  • Small bags of silica gel that are provided in the store along with the shoes should not be thrown away. Keep them and use them to prevent moisture damage.
